Most leadership roles required higher than average levels of Energy, but not as high as you might think. Isaiah knew his gift as a prophet, and he exercised it. By definition, a high level of Energy is often manifested through lots of activity, but the negative byproduct is hyperactivity, waste, and inefficiency The kind of leader who's always out for 'what's in it for me?

They need clear objectives and a culture of honesty in which feedback, whether perceived to be positive or negative, can be given and received without fear of consequences It is necessary to pick and choose what you want. There is so much inf...
